Move over popcorn, there’s a new snack in the bowl!!! I know it sounds weird, but I’m not a fan of popcorn. I’m probably one of the few people that don’t like it, but there’s just something about it that I don’t have the taste for. So while everyone is sitting down with their bowl full of their popcorn, I’m grabbing for something else. Like this bowl of Spicy Kale Chips!!

Like I’ve said before, some girls collect shoes, I collect appliances, and handbags. Because, let’s admit it, what girl doesn’t love a good handbag. But anyways, as I was saying, I collect appliances and my latest addition is my Slow Cooker!

So far this is one of my favs!! And of course, I couldn’t just get a plain old black or grey, I got a teal striped one from Black + Decker.

As it says in the book Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon, (a must read for everyone!) there are no new ideas. And as time has gone by I have seen how recipes have not changed, but rather evolved. With that being said, I’m here to say that I ‘stole’ this recipe from my mom! (LOL – but I guess it’s not stealing if she knows) It’s her Green Fig and Potato Salad!!

When I tell people how much I love Brussel Sprouts, I often get this look from them, almost as if they’re saying “are you crazy!” But my answer is yes!! I’m crazy for Brussel Sprouts! They are in my top 10 favourite vegetables and they are not leaving there anytime soon.
